GRASS GRASS user

On my windows 10 machine and using Grass version 7.8.5 I have added
set PYTHONUTF8=1 to the bat file
and Grass is starting up fine. I will report any issues that I'll find

Cheers
Karsten

mail below was sent on Wed Apr 14 2021 => no reaction, no one a minute to
test?

if no one of the community has a minute to test winGRASS, then I guess it's
time to propose to the PSC dropping winGRASS at all....

kind regards

dear GRASS GIS community,

testing of winGRASS is a important piece of puzzle to guarantee a stable and
useable software on the MS windows platform in the future.

For this, we would need the help of the community now. :slight_smile:

background is an _error in g.extension while installing i.fusion.hpf in
windows_

some more information

https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/1477
https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/1496

it's an encoding issue while opening files via python.

a possible solution may be set PYTHONUTF8=1 as environment variable.

and a way how you could help, just add

set PYTHONUTF8=1

in C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\grass\grass79\etc\env.bat just before GRASS_PYTHON is
set. (or in the same file in the standalone winGRASS installation).

it would look like:

[...]
set PYTHONUTF8=1
set GRASS_PYTHON=%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\bin\python3.exe
[...]

and then happy GRASS GIS working :slight_smile: and report back if there are any issues
in your daily winGRASS work.

kind regards
Helmut

Dear Grass community, I?m using wingrass 7.8.5 (daily, mainly to process and
analyze raster DEM). No new issues to report in my daily task. But if I try
to install i.fusion.hpf, as Helmut suggested, I obtain the following error
message. I hope it is useful. Best regards

Sorry.... and If I added "set PYTHONUTF8=1" in
C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\grass\grass78\etc\env.bat just before GRASS_PYTHON is
setting, grass stops to work...
